The 43 issues of Kino-Week made between May 1918 and June 1919 are a priceless record of daily life during a period of civil war and violent upheaval that brought about famine, peasant mutinies and the Soviet government’s “Red Terror” policy. Included in this program are images of Lenin and Trotsky reviewing the Red Army in Red Square and the wildly triumphant commemoration of the centenary of Karl Marx’s birth.
